For WindowMaker use these commands and restart gdm:

$ echo -e "#!/bin/bash\n/usr/bin/wmaker" > /etc/gdm/Sessions/WindowMaker
$ chmod 755 /etc/gdm/Sessions/WindowMaker

I don't know what the executable file for Blackbox is so you'll have to
figure it out yourself.

Looks like a bug to me that WindowMaker and Blackbox are not integrated
into GDM.
